Default What have you all used to fix this..

That little corner on your EH headlamp that the corner light screws into?

Ive tried:
Superglue.
Some no name plastic epoxy/sealant/patch smelly ****.
and JB Weld.

All have broken in a matter of 2-4 weeks of daily driving. I dont want to buy another headlamp... so does anybody have any more ideas?

TIA.

Never broken it but try welding the plastic together with a soldering iron. Or a 2-ton epoxy. That **** works wonders, much better than super glue. But I would suggest removing the headlamp and taking it inside so the epoxy can set properly, unless you have a heated garage.

EDIT: Nevermind about the heated part, luck ***, I wish I was in So Cal right now.

You could use fiberglass matting and some resin and that should hold it. It might be a little mess to do but its inexpensive to buy.
